Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity raises funds to support homelessness initiatives across the city region. Nobody in our city region should be without a safe, secure place to call home. Yet there are many for whom this is out of reach. It isn't right. Not anywhere, but certainly not here.

I have decided to push myself totally out of my comfort zone and do a Skydive - why not!   I won't be alone though, my colleagues Chris Quirk and Ethan Lim will also be joining me. 

For those that know me well, I am not very good with heights. I'm ok going on holiday in an aeroplane, but when it comes to anything above 2 floors - that's me ..... shaking legs and feeling sick. 

So I really hope that you can appreciate how difficult this is for me, but being part of the Fact3 Charity Champions and Greater Manchester Mayor's Charity being at the heart of what we do, I want to support them as much as I possibly can along with any support you can offer too. 

Any donations are gratefully received.  Pictures will follow after the Event in September.
